ABB DS201 C32 AC30 Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overcurrent Protection 1P+N 32A 6kA 30mA Type AC

The ABB DS201 C32 AC30 is a high-performance residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO), engineered to provide comprehensive electrical safety in residential and commercial environments. This device combines the functions of a miniature circuit breaker and a residual current device in a single compact unit, protecting electrical circuits against both overloads and short circuits, while simultaneously detecting earth fault currents to prevent electric shock hazards.

Advantages

This RCBO offers a robust design that ensures long-term operational reliability and safety. By integrating two protective functions into one module, it saves significant space in distribution boards, allowing for more efficient installation. The device is built to high manufacturing standards, providing consistent performance in detecting AC type leakage currents and responding rapidly to fault conditions, which is essential for maintaining a secure electrical infrastructure.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution boards
• Commercial building power systems
• Protection of final circuits against overloads and short circuits
• Detection of AC type earth leakage currents
• Enhancing safety in lighting and socket circuits

This device may not be suitable for applications requiring protection against DC component leakage currents, as it is specifically designed for AC type faults. It is also not intended for use in industrial environments where high-frequency interference or specific environmental conditions might require a different type of residual current protection.

Key specifications

• Rated current: 32A
• Breaking capacity: 6kA
• Sensitivity: 30mA
• Type: AC
• Poles: 1P+N
• Protection: Overload and short circuit

Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations. The device is mounted on a standard DIN rail within a distribution board. Ensure that the supply voltage matches the device specifications and that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque settings before energizing the circuit.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 32A rating is appropriate for your circuit load
• Ensure compatibility with your existing distribution board and DIN rail system
• Confirm that AC type protection meets your specific safety requirements
• Check local electrical codes for installation compliance

Regularly test the device using the integrated test button to ensure the residual current mechanism remains functional and provides ongoing protection for your electrical installation.
